The brand retells the legend of Adonis and Aphrodite as a story of love, loss and renewal, and puts rose at the centre of the scent. Citrus and pink pepper open it; sandalwood and cashmere wood close it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Bergamot, Grapefruit, Pink Peppercorn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Bulgarian Rose, Sambac Jasmine, Vanilla, Raspberry, Chestnut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Mysore Sandalwood, Cashmere Wood, Rose Absolute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCitrus with pepper\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBergamot and grapefruit open bright and slightly bitter, and pink peppercorn adds a dry, sparkling edge. This first stage is short and clean, with nothing sweet in it yet. It prepares the ground for the heart without giving any of it away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRose, raspberry, vanilla\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBulgarian rose and sambac jasmine lead the heart, and raspberry and vanilla soften them into something rounder and sweeter. Chestnut adds a nutty gentleness. The brand puts rose at the centre, and it stays the clear main voice throughout this stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWood beneath the rose\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMysore sandalwood and cashmere wood form a smooth, creamy base, and rose absolute comes back inside it, so the flower stays present from heart to finish. The drydown is soft, woody and faintly sweet, with no sharp edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWearing it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdonis Awakens sits between fresh and sweet, so it fits several settings: a spring day, an autumn afternoon or an evening out. Two or three sprays on the chest or neck are enough, since the Eau de Parfum concentration carries well on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it suits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eArgos lists it as unisex. Choose it if you like rose but want it softened with fruit, vanilla and wood rather than kept pure and sharp. If you prefer dry, green or smoky scents, the sweet raspberry and vanilla heart will probably feel too soft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose Argos Adonis Awakens\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eArgos pairs each Artist Series perfume with a painting and a myth, and this is the second in the series. The bottle is thick, hand-polished Italian glass with a custom metal cap and a flush-mounted metal 3D plate showing the artwork, designed by Christian Petrovich.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat is the idea behind the name?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt refers to The Awakening of Adonis, a painting by John William Waterhouse. Argos retells the legend of Adonis and Aphrodite, in which the goddess's blood turns a white rose crimson, as love, loss and renewal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs it a rose perfume?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRose is the centre, but not the whole: citrus and pink pepper come first, and raspberry, vanilla and Mysore sandalwood soften it. Expect a sweet, woody rose rather than a pure floral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat concentration and size is it?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA 100 ml Eau de Parfum. That concentration gives a noticeable, rounded scent that develops through several stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDoes it work in summer?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe citrus opening is light, but the heart and base are sweet and woody. It is best in spring and autumn; in real heat, use a lighter hand.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Argos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67658298261656,"sku":"ARG-ADONIS-AWAKENS-EDP-100ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0852\/1157\/8520\/files\/argos-adonis-awakens-eau-de-parfum-100ml.webp?v=1791393800","url":"https:\/\/nichegems.eu\/products\/argos-adonis-awakens-eau-de-parfum-100ml","provider":"NicheGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
